paint and glitter stones

january 2023

       julie was one of the first people i told about my plan to focus more on photography in 2023. just a week later, she asked me to capture a series portraits featuring mely, styled by julie herself. eager to experiment with fresh ideas, julie aimed to explore novel facial embellishments, with shine and glitter taking center stage. with a soft, diffused flashlight, i endeavored to accentuate the dazzling aspects of the adornments while preserving a distinct nostalgic aura within the resulting images. 


       check out the amazing work of juliette ruetz and other projects of mely.               fotographed with my fujifilm gfx 50s ii//mamiya 7//nikon fm3a on portra 400//ilford delta 100.
